About This Home

East Frio River Retreat is a distinctive riverfront property offering both recreational enjoyment and proven short-term rental income along the banks of the Frio River. Designed with a modern container-style aesthetic, the two-story home comfortably accommodates large groups and delivers a unique stay experience that has made it a popular destination for vacation guests. Set beneath towering cypress trees and overlooking the clear waters of the Frio River, the property combines relaxed river living with thoughtful amenities and flexible use. With no deed restrictions in place, the retreat offers excellent potential as a continued income-producing property, private getaway, or future redevelopment opportunity. Location The retreat enjoys approximately 150 feet of private frontage on the East Frio River, providing direct access to one of the most sought-after rivers in Texas for swimming, fishing, and summer recreation. The shaded riverbank is lined with mature cypress trees and features a natural white sand beach area, creating a welcoming setting for both owners and guests. The river in this stretch typically maintains year-round flow, even during dry periods, making it a reliable and attractive destination for vacationers looking to enjoy the water throughout the year. Landscape The property's landscape centers around the beautiful river corridor, where mature cypress trees create shade and privacy along the shoreline. The natural canopy and riverfront setting give the property a peaceful, tucked-away atmosphere while still allowing easy access to the water. Outdoor gathering areas are thoughtfully arranged throughout the property, creating inviting spaces to relax under the trees, enjoy meals outdoors, or take in views of the river. Water Features Water access is the defining feature of East Frio River Retreat. With direct frontage on the East Frio River, guests and owners enjoy immediate access to clear, flowing water ideal for swimming, kayaking, and fishing. The riverbank features a natural sandy area that serves as a small beach, making entry into the water easy and enjoyable. The combination of shade from the cypress canopy and year-round water flow creates an ideal environment for outdoor recreation and relaxation. Improvements The property is improved with a two-story container-style residence designed to comfortably accommodate up to 13 guests. The home features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with an open-concept main level that includes a full kitchen and living area ideal for entertaining or gathering after a day on the river. A private downstairs suite offers river views and direct access to the outdoor patio area, adding both privacy and functionality to the home's layout. The bedrooms are furnished with queen beds featuring Purple mattresses, providing a comfortable experience for overnight guests. Several recent upgrades have enhanced the property's usability and appearance, including a motorized entry gate, fenced yard, improved stairway, fresh exterior paint, and updated bedding. Outdoor living is a major highlight of the retreat, with two patios-one covered- offering ample space for grilling, relaxing, and enjoying the surrounding scenery. Build Sites & Use With no deed restrictions, the property offers a high level of flexibility for current and future use. The retreat is currently operated as a successful short-term rental, with financial information available upon request, but it could also serve as a private family getaway or be expanded to include additional improvements. The property's location along the Frio River, combined with its established rental history, makes it well positioned for continued income generation or long-term recreational enjoyment. Summary East Frio River Retreat is a rare riverfront offering combining modern design, exceptional outdoor amenities, and direct access to the East Frio River.
